Peace is the price of aid to Israel

America’s inability to broker peace between the Israelis and Palestinians could be due to the sizeable U.S. foreign aid Israel receives, which helps fund the country’s expansion into occupied territories, says Chase Madar in TomDispatch. By helping arm and bankroll “a wealthy nation committing ethnic cleansing” the U.S. is fueling anti-American hatred, compromising its foreign policy objectives in the region and giving Israel “no real incentive to change its behavior,” he says.

Total bunkum. The Arab population of both Israel and Palestine (west bank and Gaza) have grown constantly since 1967 when Israel captured the terroritories. Ditto for the Arab population in East Jerusalem. Never in history have so many Palestinian Arabs lived in Jerusalem or Israel or the West Bank or Gaza.
Becuase that statistic is factual and verifiable, claiming “ethnic cleansing” means the author is being disingenuous, or is just a plain old Israel-hater who will say anything bad whether it is true or not.
In this case, Chase Madar is clearly trying to mislead TU readers.
